Club News

Sad news  We were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of fellow club member Richard Winterburn on February 15, 2010 at 66 years of age.  He was loving father of Brennah Rose and life partner and friend of Cindy Diubaldo.  Richard was passionate about British sports cars, especially Morgans. If you so desire, donations to the Ontario Heart and Stroke Foundation, the A.L.S. Society of Essex County, the Humane Society of Windsor and Essex County or to a charity of your choice would be appreciated by the family. On Friday, February 19, friends and family are invited to a visitation between 1-2 pm followed by a Memorial Service at Families First Funeral Home and Tribute Centre (519-969-5841) 3260 Dougall Ave., Windsor, Ontario.

  • The Hibernation Party was another huge success!
    Thanks to all who came out and celebrated... we had a great evening featuring a slide show, fine food, a band that kept the dance floor hopping all night and tremendous raffle prizes once again.  Look for a few pictures in the March issue of the newsletter with more to come in the April edition.

  • WDMGC Facebook Group For those members who are familiar with the social network Facebook, the club has an established Facebook group that we urge you to join and participate in. Besides enabling communication with fellow members, we hope it will encourage more impromptu get-togethers amongst members. Just as the newsletter complemented word-of-mouth and the web site complemented the newsletter, the Facebook group is yet one more addition to our suite of communication and networking tools. If you're already registered with Facebook all you need to do is click here. If you're not a Facebook member yet, you will be prompted to sign up at the top of the page.
